Both fields played in high sustained wins and even higher gusts and the MPO field faced a wind delay as the lead card was about to tee off. At the end of the day, both the FPO and MPO divisions ended with a tie for first that coincidentally includes the winner in each field from the most recent DGPT playoff event.
